I am so happy to have found Joshua and Happy Day Poms! I have always wanted a Pomeranian and…read morestarted my search for a reputable breeder in the spring of 2019. I researched breeders through the American Kennel Club's website and emailed several to inquire about their ethics, breeding practices, and past litters. When I began corresponding with Joshua, I knew right away that he was the breeder I wanted to work with. His dogs are his pets, not moneymakers. His puppies are not a primary source of income for his family, but a celebration of the Pomeranian breed. I traveled from NYC to Florida (where he was previously located) in order to purchase one of his puppies; that's how much I preferred his practices to the several breeders who live in my area. I brought my puppy, Turkey, home in June of 2019. Because I lived so far away, I was not able to meet her prior to picking her up. Roughly five weeks elapsed between me paying her deposit and when she was ready to come home, and Joshua supplied me with pictures, videos, and commentary nearly every day. I was also able to check his Instagram stories to watch her play with her littermate and Joshua's other dogs--he has a very active social media presence. When the time finally came for me to pick Turkey up, Joshua's home was absolutely spotless (no easy task when you have 9+ Pomeranians) and he and his partner were so incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. He provided me with her AKC paperwork, veterinary and vaccination records, and even a tube of flea and tick prevention, all in a little folder with pictures of her puppyhood! Upon our return to NYC, I had Turkey checked out by my own vet who found her to be in perfect health. In the four months that I've had Turkey, she has brought me so much joy. She is intelligent, happy, healthy, and so freaking adorable! She loves every creature she meets, from rambunctious toddlers to enormous pit bulls. Joshua and I are in regular contact about her progress and it's clear that he cares about his puppies for long after they've left his care. I've passed along his information to several people in my neighborhood who fawn over Turkey, and would recommend him to anyone.

Joshua is wonderful. He obviously loves the pomeranian breed and absolutely loves & cares for his…read moredogs. He has the most beautiful puppies in NorCal (if you don't believe me, check out his facebook and website - I see comments that people think the pics are AI, but having seen them in person: no they are actually that cute and fluffy perfect for real!). Beautiful colors & markings. I might be biased, but we got his best puppy of all times! Great experience. Made deposit online, he provided cute videos & updates until the puppy was ready for pickup. He had an information packet, food, and probiotics for us when we got our precious baby. I am very satisfied. Everything went smooth & easy with the transaction. If I ever need another pom, I would definitely purchase from him again.

I cannot recommend enough Tammy at Dream Golden Retrievers. Our family of four, including two…read moreyoung children, really wanted to welcome a wonderful little Golden Retriever as the fifth member of our family. I undertook a significant amount of research on Golden breeders in the extended area, focusing specifically on hobby breeders that had wonderful sir and dam lines that were well documented and highly reviewed. Tammy and Dream Golden Retrievers fit the bill. From the first series of communications, Tammy was awesome. It is so clear that she loves Goldens, and she provided us with a WEALTH of information. Everything from how to prepare our home and children, to the best vet to select, to the best trainers in our area. I can't imagine doing this on our own after having Tammy's support. Visiting the litter it was clear she had such an amazing Mom (Willow) and Dad (Doc) - https://k9data.com/pedigree.asp?ID=1081443. Tammy was very thoughtful in selecting our puppy with our input, and our sweet girl Scout has been wonderful. She is a blast at home, very smart and picks up to training quickly, and even our trainer has told us that she "fell in love" with Scout! We provide a VERY strong recommendation for Tammy and Dream Golden Retrievers!!!!! Some pictures of our beautiful Scout :).

We are delighted with our new family member and we are grateful to Tammy for bringing him into the world in the best way possible. Thank you Tammy, for all that you did for us.

We are so blessed to have found Heidi at Once Upon A Havanese. From the first second we started…read morecommunication she offered a FaceTime with the pups to meet the litter and pick out which one we thought would best match our household/personalities. As soon as we saw North, we were in love. We put the deposit down and the next day we had our first weekly email PUPDATE about him. She had even sent us pictures of the mom amd dad so we could get an idea of what he might look like in the future. Every week, Heidi sent us updated photos and tips on how to best prepare for our new addition. She helped us immensely and responded super quick through email any time we had questions. She also provided her phone number and responded quickly to texts but we didn't use it as much as email. Once we arrived at the house, we could tell this was a family who loved animals. They were sad to see North leave, but happy he had found a home. Heidi gave us an informational packet along with a goody bag of useful items to get us started on caring for our new pup. I just can't express my gratitude in words. The process was so easy and now we have the most amazing feeling every time we get to hang out with this little cutie. We have since re-named him Rocko, and he is really getting the gmhang of things around here. For anyone looking for an AKC well bred Havanese puppy anywhere in California, I highly recommend working with Heidi!!

I got my GS from Kreative Kennels in November 2017. When I picked him up at their facility he was…read morefull of feces so the worker took him to hose him down and brought him back completely wet and was wiping him with a rag, but he still smelled. The poor thing was shivering. When we were driving back to So. California, I noticed he kept coughing. The next day I took him to vet emergency clinic and they said he had a respiratory infection and gave him an injection of antibiotics. After the antibiotics killed all the good bacteria in this 7 week old puppy, he had chronic GI issues for months. I called Kreative and they reimbursed me for the vet visit but I was still dealing with the chronic loose stool. Then he was diagnosed with severe hip dysplasia in early 2020 and vet said he already had it as a puppy which is why he was bunny hopping. After the age of 2, he displayed very aggressive behavior toward objects, thank goodness not toward people and has very high anxiety. He destroyed all my furniture, sofas, kitchen table, kitchen wall, bed mattress, chainlink fence, etc. while growling and foaming at the mouth. He is 8yo now and when something triggers him, he will scratch and bark at the floor. Doesn't go after the furniture or objects anymore. He also does this if anyone comes in the house to visit or if something triggers him. I've had 3 trainers. I've had to pay thousands for his hip surgery and rehab. After reading negative reviews on Yelp, I feel I have to share my experience with my dog. I called Kreative a couple of years ago to see if one of his parents also had these behavioral issues, but was told that his father had been retired. I asked why and they said because he was barking a lot and damaged his vocal cord. I didn't believe it. There are lots of dogs who bark 24/7 and don't damage their vocal cords. They wouldn't give me information on his mother. Now when my dog has one of his fits, I just point to the hallway and he knows to go straight to his room and into his crate until he's done having his fit. He'll just scratch and bark at the floor of the crate and after a few minutes he calms down. It's like his brain suddenly turns on and then turns off as if nothing happened. He's gotten a lot better but it's been a long hard road and this is where we are now. When he doesn't have those fits, he's the sweetest dog and the vets love him.

We had the most incredible experience with Irina and cannot recommend her cattery enough. From…read morestart to finish, the entire process was seamless, professional, and so easy--communication was clear, thoughtful, and reassuring every step of the way. We selected our baby girl about a month ago, and she has been an absolute dream. She came fully potty trained and is the sweetest, most cuddly, playful, and friendly kitten. Truly, she is the best cat I've ever had. She's admired by everyone who meets her--family and friends are obsessed! My brother even calls her the "beauty queen" and says she's the prettiest cat he's ever seen. What impressed us most is her temperament. She's wonderful with other pets--my mom brings her dog over and our kitten is gentle and unbothered, and she's even fascinated (in the cutest way) by our bearded dragon. That speaks volumes about the care and socialization Irina provides. Irina is a trusted breeder who clearly puts so much love, intention, and expertise into raising top-notch kitties.

Kind, reassuring, and incredibly knowledgeable. As first time kitten owners, we had countless questions, and she was always so patient, responsive, and genuinely supportive every step of the way. What truly sets Irina apart is how much she cares beyond just the pickup day. She was there for us before, during, and even after bringing our kitten home, which meant more to us than anything having never dealt with a kitten before. You can tell she puts so much love, time, and intention into raising her kittens. Our kitten is everything we could have hoped for. She is affectionate, playful, cuddly, well socialized, and adored by everyone who meets her. She adjusted to us and even our puppy seamlessly and has been an absolute dream with zero issues. We feel unbelievably lucky to have her in our lives. I cannot recommend Irina highly enough. If you are considering working with her, don't hesitate. You'll be glad you did!
